Lisätiedot
In general, Smart Grid is an enabler of energy-efficient and environmentally friendly energy market and critical infrastructure for society. The smart solutions will connect information technology and communication technology to the electricity infrastructure.
The major studies provide thorough knowledge of Smart Grids, addressing in-depth some of the underlying areas such as active network management, the integration of distributed energy resources and the enabling FACTS technology. Power electronics plays a key role in the integration of the so-called distributed energy resources into the smart grid - distributed renewable sources of generation such as solar and hydrogen cells, wind turbines, controllable loads and electric vehicles. Distribution automation and ICT solutions for active network management provide the foundation for the overall target of smart grids to enable energy-efficient and environmentally friendly energy markets aiming at a secure infrastructure for the benefit of society.
Smart Grid major is also available for a student of Finnish Master program or from other Finnish universities having suitable courses in Bachelor Degree studies. Suitable major studies in Bachelor level at TAU’s Electrical Engineering degree program are e.g. Power Engineering, Renewable Energy Technologies or Power Electronics. In the case of a Finnish student the course DEE-24106 Electric Power Systems can be replaced by the course DEE-24000 Sähköverkkojen mallintaminen ja analyysi in the Smart Grid major.
